Use AND, NOT, and other boolean logic and the searches do not respond as they used to.
I'm not familiar enough probably with anything complex but Google apparently does support at least some operators... What can you not do now that you could previously?

one example

"C4" AND "Dana" AND "36" AND "ring and pinion" NOT "ford"

and you get all ford, and none for a Dana 36

changing to +/- and you get a different result where the result should be the same

Yes, but you can use +/- and get the desired behavior, right? Just can't use actual boolean operators?

using the + / - doesnt give the results I am looking for. just different than the boolean operators.

It.
Has.
Begun!

I only use the basic AI that comes with Google Chrome. It's the non login version of Gemini. I have many threads with a wide variety of topics. It has never been able to "see" the other threads before.

This evening I was talking about one thread, got some answers and closed that tab. Then I closed all my other tabs, plus the window and opened a fresh window. I then typed a single word to use as a reference and hit enter. And I got an immediate response which included my conversation from the prior thread! And that response was related to my prompt word.

I asked it how it got that information because it had told me previously that it didn't have that capability. The answer was a list of recent upgrades showing that it now has memory of and access to ALL of my current and prior threads! 😲

It's started.

We just banned an AI chatbot that was simultaneously posting on iBoats and at least 7 other forums

Come on solar flare and big EMP
